From Delmarva Public Radio: Since former National Security Agency contractor Edward Snowden leaked classified information about the agency’s intelligence-gathering activities last summer, the NSA has been bombarded with requests for its records.
USA Today this week said the agency received more than 2,500 requests for records from July to September, compared to about 250 from January to March.
“The largest percentage of requests being received is from individuals wanting to know if NSA has collected their information as part of its intelligence mission,” Pamela Phillips, the NSA’s public liaison officer, tells NPR.
